Kalenderblad augustus met drie zwemmende eenden 1908

"Kalenderblad augustus met drie zwemmende eenden" (August Calendar with Three Swimming Ducks), a 1908 woodcut by Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema, features a detailed depiction of three ducks swimming in a pond. The print, now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, exemplifies van Hoytema's talent for capturing the natural world in a precise and evocative manner. The artist's use of fine lines and tonal variations creates a sense of depth and realism within the composition. This calendar design, with its decorative border and simple grid layout, is a testament to the artist's artistic versatility.
